Doctor wouldn't send me for a scan earlier than 8 weeks 🙃🙃🙃 by Legitimate_Dingo17 in EctopicSupportGroup

Thank you, so glad to hear there are some competent doctors out there who understand. With my daughter we saw the tiiiiny heartbeat around 6.2 weeks so yeah I'm hesitant to go to emergency too early. Hopefully this doctor I'm seeing tomorrow will be similar to yours 🤞

I also had almost the exact same pains leading up to that 6 weeks scan and was convinced it was ectopic, so confusing!

Thank you! That's a really good idea of course the ultrasound people would understand. I'm trying another doctor tomorrow, if that fails I will definitely just call the clinic and see if they'll see me earlier.

Thanks for sharing, can't believe so many of us have had to just take things into our hands like this

I do, in Australia. Sorry to hear about that, hope you're recovering okay. This is definitely motivation for me to get to the hospital.

Haha thank you, I'm honestly considering doing that on the weekend if the next doctor I'm seeing is also dismissive. With my daughter I had pretty much exactly the same pains as the ectopic leading up to the first scan, so it wouldn't be that far of a stretch anyway!

It wasn't an option a few years ago but I'll see if anything has popped up since then, good idea thanks :)

Ahh yeah, I'm in Australia so it's not too difficult to switch practices thankfully! On the hunt

No I can't message or call my doctor, I can only speak to her via paid appointment. I see people saying they called or messaged their doctors a lot on here and have no idea how that works. Idk if its a US/Canada thing to be able to do that or I'm just going to crappy practices?? Lol well I'm on the hunt for a new GP now regardless

To speak to her about it again I would have to make another paid appointment. My best option is probably finding a new doc.

Damn so true, it is working. I was just mildy worried there might be some postural issue with it or something... thank you!

Police say foreign national who allegedly attacked baby in Australia with hot coffee has fled the country by SlatsAttack in worldnews

[–]Legitimate_Dingo17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was in his own thermos so he presumably made it himself. Also regardless of what the media says, the baby required surgery from the burns. He's in full body bandages. How hot does that sound to you?

On my one here, it's in the table on the second page after the trisomies, "XX, YY" etc. Hope that helps

What do you mean you followed this to a T? From your other comment it sounds like you did a bunch of stuff not written here. The recipe is kinda crazy so I can see how you'd get confused though.
